Clinical data from uncontrolled retrospective or prospective studies have initially demonstrated antiproliferative effects of lanreotide in limited number of patients lanreotide Autogel® has recently been approved in more than 40 countries for the treatment of GEP-NET patients, this is based on the results of CLARINET study, the largest prospective trial to evaluate the antiproliferative effects of lanreotide Autogel® in subjects with nonfunctional GEP-NETs. The study enrolled 204 subjects (101 subjects were randomized to lanreotide Autogel® group and 103 subjects were randomized to placebo group, came from 14 countries) with well or moderately differentiated non-functioning GEP-NETs, including pancreatic and gastrointestinal tumors, and defined as having less than 10% of proliferation marker Ki67. The study had shown that treatment with lanreotide Autogel® significantly prolonged progression-free survival in subjects with GEP-NETs compared to treatment with placebo in the primary analysis (median progression-free survival, not reached vs. 18.0 months, P< 0.001 by the stratified log-rank test; hazard ratio for progression or death with lanreotide vs. placebo, 0.47; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.30 to 0.73) [5].
